3-D Halloween Treat Bags

Halloween is such a fun time of year. In addition to the traditional trick or treating, many of us will be attending parties or we have kids who will be attending parties. Some of you brave souls will be hosting parties, too. If you're one of them or if you're a parent who's volunteered to help make the treat bags for your child's class (ahem, like me), here is an idea for a goodie bag.



I took cello bags and filled them with candy. I created the 3-D pumpkin in my Silhouette machine and used black ribbon to finish it off.

This project is very versatile, too. You could create one for a birthday party using fun, festive colors and a birthday-themed image. You could use pretty pastels and flower images for a Mother's Day gift. Christmas treat bags could be red or green and have a Christmas tree.

If you choose to do this for Halloween, you can be assured your guests will be happy with the treat and won't play any tricks on you!! Facebook
